I must say I hadn't realized the Parker Brothers version of Frogger was not an 'Official' version for the Atari 2600, not sure why Sega felt they needed to put out another version but I can only assume it had to do with money.
I would really like to have been a fly on the wall for the meeting to decide the name of the last title pictured above.
"How about Seaquest?"
"Nah, it's already taken and so is Seahunt, Seastalker, and Sidney's Safari Submerged beneath the Sea!"
"How about we let the kids make up their own name for the game?
"Brilliant! Mark yourself for a raise, we'll call it Name This Game."

Why is Frogger a businessman on that cover?
Is there some kind of subtext to the game that I missed?
Hey now, just because he has a vest, tie, and watch with a briefcase doesn't mean he is a businessman. He could be an 80's drug czar.
But silliness aside that is the orginial character are on the side of the arcade cabinets.
